Best Arachnid Wrangler

David Moellendorf

Looking for a specific tarantula? A Tiger Rump Doppleganger, perhaps, or a Big Bend Gold Carapace? Craving a live specimen of Hadogenes Troglodytes, the big scorpion with the Dr. Seuss-looking tail, or maybe an Amblypigid with whips over a foot long? We've got your source: David Moellendorf, who works out of the Zoo Keeper exotics shop at Burnet Road & Highway 183, has over 22 years of arachnological experience (and the scars to prove it) and either has what you're looking for or, probably, knows where to find it. He's such a nice, cheery guy for someone so familiar with the creepy-crawlers, it's little wonder he's got a portable exhibit available for classes and birthday parties, too.
